Ascent of Mount Kearsarge on 2011-07-15

Ascent Trip Report

Parked at the parking area for Rollins State Park and followed the Rollins Trail to the summit.

The Rollins Trail was easy to follow with many rocks for footholds. There were numerous families following this route. At the top, I enjoyed the views throughout 360° as many of the peaks of the Presidentals and White Mountains were visible.

Descended using the Lincoln Trail. This trail is more rocky with some fairly steep sections. There were some families that were following this trail to go up. I wouldn't recommend it from small kids on the descent.
